I don't like this idea at all. Surely if you change strings to a different gauge you would have to remove it?

I don't know? Wouldn't you just adjust the spring tension to account for the change in string tension to maintain the floating position?
Kind of how you adjust the spring/string tension with the trem lock on a Jazzmaster?

That'w what was going to say. crank down the spring tension screws if it is a problem. just like you would do if you drastically change string sizes. you want the bridge to float a certain height anyway so you would adjust the tension on the springs to give the desired height._________________
